<p align="center"><b>Resourcepage</b></p>

<p>The resourcepage module provides a page containing a list of resources,
such as web links, uploaded files, and text entries.</p>

<p>Available resource types:</p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Text</strong>: simple text heading.</li>
<li><strong>Web link</strong>: link to a web site.</li>
<li><strong>File</strong>: file that you upload, with optional different formats (such as .pdf and .doc).</li>
<li><strong>Crosslink</strong>: Link to another resource page from this course</li>
</ul>

<p>
All types of resource allow an optional description. They can also be 
configured to appear only within a certain range of time, or to be 
accessible only to certain groups.
</p>

<p>
Once you have created a resource you can edit it in the page. After saving those
changes, you can use standard Moodle icons to edit the resource again, make it 
invisible, or delete it. Deleted resources go into the 'Deleted items' section,
which is usually hidden but may be expanded by clicking the button. (If you 
delete an item again while it is within that section, it will be permanently 
erased and cannot be recovered.) You can move items around the page or to other 
pages in the course by clicking and dragging on the ridged grey button to the left
of the item. This is also how you retrieve items from the 'Delete items' section. 
</p>

<p>
In addition to the above basic types of resource, the resourcepage also supports
extensions which provide an automated way of adding items to the page. There are two types:
</p>

<ul>
<li>
<strong>Pull extensions</strong> are added using a button; in this case, the items they provide 
are treated as a block and you can't separately edit them. 
</li>
<li>
<strong>Push extensions</strong> produce per-course data and work with 'placeholders'. You add a 
placeholder to a resource page, and the extension will then add items just above that
placeholder. Once added, you are free to edit the items as you choose.
</li>
</ul>
